to relink or not to relink

in Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC) 10 commentsAnswered

Hi,

I've a Oracle RDBMS EE version 19.30 on an Oracle Linux 9.7 server and I've just updated glibc to a new version: 2.34-231

My question is: should I relink oracle? According with document 1467060.1 (FAQ1526) relinking should be done after

5)  Is relinking required after an OS upgrade , Downgrade , Patching or removal of the patch ?

Yes, Oracle recommends to perform manual relinking of Oracle Home Binaries after OS Upgrade , Patching , Downgrade or removal of the Patch or any change which impact OS library behavior . Successful relinking shows Oracle Executable are properly linked with OS binaries.

So I think after a glibc update (it was an important security patch) it must be relinked.

Howdy, Stranger!
